Here in the United States, there are police authorities who make use of psychics to help them solve crimes.
Their function is to lead the investigators who in turn gather evidence to identify and bring the suspects to trial.
This story however about ghost who led the police to her murderer was the first. And the Victim was a Filipina. A Nurse.
I read this story from the Oxford Book of Supernatural. Then when I googled the name TERESITA BASA, I got this article.
The Murder of Teresita Basa. On February 21, 1977, a woman by the name of Teresita Basa was found brutally murdered and partially burned in her Chicago high-rise apartment...What was not mentioned was, later, the suspect admitted his crime.
There were no clues and no suspects.
Dr. Jose Chua and his wife worked at the same hospital as Teresita, but they barely knew her. Nevertheless, one evening Mrs. Chua suddenly went into a trance and announced in perfectly fluent Tagalog, a Phillipine dialect--
"I am Teresita Basa."
She then proceeded to tell the Chuas that she was murdered by an orderly, Allen Showery, who had stolen her jewelry and given her pearl cocktail ring to his wife...
Terrified, the Chuas reported the information to the Chicago police. Two veteran detectives assigned to the case were highly skeptical of the information, but having no other leads, they decided to investigate. When they searched Showery's apartment, they found Teresita's jewels--and his wife had the pearl cocktail ring!
When Allen Showery was confronted with this evidence he immediately confessed to the murder of Teresita Basa, but at trial his attorney moved to dismiss the case on the grounds that evidence provided by a ghost is inadmissible in a court of law.
The judge disagreed. Allen Showery was convicted of murder and sent to prison for fourteen years...
The decision created quite a stir in legal circles because it was the first case on record in which the chief witness for the prosecution was a ghost.
Taunted and stalked by the ghost? Maybe.

di naman nakakatakot kung babasahin, pero tumatayo ang balahibo ko at this moment sa diko malamang dahilan hahaha, first time kong nakabalita ng ganyan, kasi yung iba minumulto lang nagpapatulong daw na makuha ang justice pero pinangalanan pa at malinaw na nagbigay ng clue, ngayon lang, pero my ganun pala talaga, kasi yung mga napapanood kong sinasapian daw ng spirit(mga esperetistang binabayaran) at nagsasalita in bahalf nung pumanaw e parang till now dipa rin ako convinced.
lee,
hindi rin ako basta-basta naniniwala sa seance. yong mga sabi ay sinasapian. marami rin kasing manloloko.
Ako hindi pumapayag sapian. kakausapin ko na lang sila.
nagulat nga ako nang mabasa ko ito na nangyari sa Chicago.
sa chicago pa ha at di sa pinas, kung tutuusin mas mapapaniwalain ang mga tao sa pinas
lee,
mas binibigyan ng halaga dito ang mga psychic na naging consultant ng mga police.
meron nong reality TV, pagalingan ang mga psyhic..
alam na ng mga producers ang nangyari sa isang lugar pero pinapahulaan pa nila. yong pinakamalapit, yong ang nanalo.
ang mga universities dito may department na nagreresearch tungkol sa paranormal.
sa atin yata sa ateneo meron na rin.
para ngang my nabasa din akong ganyan mam, gamit sila ng CIA, yung nabasa kong pocket book pandoras daughter yata yun,(diko lang nagustuhan yung ending, ang haba haba at napakatinik nung kontrabida nasusundan yung bida kahit sa abroad in seconds tapos yung ending parang minadali lang ng ganun)
pati russian, ginagamit sila. lalo yong magaling sa telekinesis.
may mga documentary dito kung saan pinapakita nila ang mga ginagamit nilang psychic paghanap ng mga missing persons.
marami rin naman ditong peke.
